Categories     Chocolate

Number Of Ingredients 24

RASPBERRY COULIS:
1 pint fresh raspberries
2 tablespoons granulated sugar, or to taste
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice, or to taste
VANILLA CRÈME FRAÎCHE:
1 cup heavy cream
3 tablespoons creme fraiche
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
MOLTEN CHOCOLATE CAKES:
9 ounces bittersweet chocolate, coarsely chopped
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, plus more for the baking cups
4 large eggs plus 4 large egg yolks
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
NOUGATINE TUILES:
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into pieces
2 tablespoons light corn syrup
1/4 cup confectioners' sugar
1/4 cup slivered almonds
TO PLATE:
1 cup fresh raspberries
Fresh mint leaves

Steps:

  • RASPBERRY COULIS: Put all the ingredients in a food processor and puree. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve, pushing down on the solids. Discard the seeds. Taste and add more sugar or lemon juice if needed. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve. VANILLA CRÈME FRAÎCHE: Put the cream in a large bowl and beat with an electric mixer until soft peaks form. Add the crème fraîche, vanilla, almond extract, and granulated sugar and beat until medium peaks form. Refrigerate while you make the chocolate cakes. MOLTEN CHOCOLATE CAKES: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Butter eight 4 to 6-ounce ramekins or individual muffin cups. In the top of a double boiler, combine the chocolate and butter and place over barely simmering water. Stir until melted. Remove from the heat and let cool slightly. In a large bowl, beat the eggs and yolks until frothy. Add the sugar and continue beating until doubled in volume. Beat in the flour. Divide the batter among the ramekins. Bake until the sides are set but the center remains soft, 11 to 14 minutes. NOUGATINE TUILES: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and line 2 baking sheets with Silpats™ (silicone mats). In a medium saucepan, combine the butter, corn syrup, and confectioners' sugar. Place over medium heat and bring to a simmer, whisking, and simmer for 1 minute. Stir in the almonds and remove from the heat. Drop teaspoons of the mixture onto the baking sheets about 3 inches apart. Spread out thinly with the back of a spoon. Bake until golden brown, 12 to 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly on the baking sheets. Pat the tuiles with paper towels to remove excess butter, carefully remove from the baking sheet with a metal spatula, and place on a plate alongside the chocolate cakes.

This was my first time making molten chocolate lava cakes, and they turned out perfectly! The chocolate was rich and gooey, and the cakes were moist and fluffy. I will definitely be making these again.
